Victoria (Von) Frankenstein

Post by sssstegron »

I think the MCP entries for VON FRANKENSTEIN, BARONESS VICTORIA and FRANKENSTEIN, VICTORIA refer to the same character, and should be combined. I'm using the trade reprint of FMON 18, issues of IM102 and HM-S, and the Marvel Unlimited version of DSSS 37, which appears to be complete. I haven't been able to read SMU 21, but the description in this MCP post seems to support this:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=9163&p=44284

Victoria's situation throughout these appearances is fairly consistent. She is one of the last surviving Frankensteins, and cares for the malformed survivors of her ancestors' experiments in a castle, with occasional visits from the Frankenstein monster. In the HM-S flashback, she works with Banner to restore the ailing monster.

I think the difference in names is not enough to justify a pseudonym for this entry. In HM-S, she introduces herself as Victoria, later confessing that her last name is Frankenstein. I would combine these chronologies as follows:

VON FRANKENSTEIN, BARONESS VICTORIA
FMON 18
IM 102-FB
IM 102
DSSS 37-FB
DSSS 37
SMU 21-FB
SMU 21
*HM-S

Thanks,

For what it's worth, the Appendix agrees with you.
